- 1. To get a local account on the computers of the INFN Section of Padova you must first have obtained an AAI account of type LoA2 (Level of Assurance 2). Follow the instructions available in the official INFN Digital Identity guide https://wiki.infn.it/cn/ccr/aai/doc/rid/istruzioni/userportal/user_loa-eng . Please make sure that following the guide above you also declare to have read and accepted the INFN rules for the use of IT resources.
  - AAI accounts do not expire, so if in the past you have had a local account with INFN even in another section or have used resources such as agenda.infn.it (INDICO of INFN) or Cloud INFN, you almost certainly already have an AAI account. You just need to reset the password if it has expired.

- 2. The procedure for requesting and creating a local account is completely computerized, the portal is accessible at https://calcolo.pd.infn.it (select english with “cambia lingua” in the menu at the top right of the page). WARNING: if you need to access CMS local resources (as the t2-ui-xx user interfaces, to read and write data in the lustre system and to use the HTCondor local batch system, you must specify in the request form “I need an account to access CMS local resources”
